The actual code looks like:

 

<Component Id="ServiceBuySeasonsProperties"
Guid="539477F9-E9B1-407f-BB33-15CDDE53BA8F" DiskId="1">

  <Registry Id='ServiceInstallDir' Root='HKLM'
Key='Software\BuySeasons\WebServices' Name='ServiceInstallDir'

          Action='write' Type='string' Value='[SERVICEINSTALLDIR]' />

  <Registry Id='FullyQualifiedComputerName' Root='HKLM'
Key='Software\BuySeasons\WebServices' Name='ComputerName'

         Action='write' Type='string' Value='[FULLYQUALIFIEDCOMPUTERNAME]'
/>

. . .

 

Do you think I have a syntax problem? Like I said, I look in the log file
and it appears to be writing values to the registry but using regedit I
don't see any entries.

I've written a bit about using the <Registry> element here:
http://www.merlinia.com/mdt/WiXTutorial1.msl  (near bottom of page).

 

Are you looking in the right place? (HKLM vs. HKCU?)

 

The <Registry> element has to be inside a <Component> element. The registry
entry should automatically be removed when the Component is uninstalled.

I am trying to use the <Registry> task and I look in the log file during
installation and it seems to be executing but when I look at the actual
registry the keys and values are missing. Is the full key path automatically
created or should I initially create the registry path? Related to this, how
do I specify more than one action? Say I want to write a value to the
registry and also remove it on uninstall?

 

Thank you.

 

Kevin
